Biography[]

A Cuban based family and ally to the rebel cause, the Almeidas became prominent after Alejandro Almeida and Esteban Almeida helped Fidel Castro get to power. They were able to come to an understanding that allowed them to gain a monopoly on organized crime and made their family rise in power thanks to their share in the adult entertainment venue Corazon de Oro, which was frequently visited by American VIPs, with the condition that the family would not become involved in political affairs and has a political immunity about his illegal activities. They later became involved with Hyman Roth, who had been looking for a foothold back into Cuba since the downfall of President Batista. Their family color is lime green.

In 1959, Almeida began a war against the Corleones after Dominic unsuccessfully attempted to assassinate Castro . However, they were ultimately defeated and wiped out by the Trapani family, who took their compound in Cuba.
